Cover feature in NZZ

Another self-initiated photo series made earlier in the year has been published as a cover feature in Switzerland’s weekend magazine, NZZ ( Neue Zürcher Zeitung)  It was a scene I stumbled on and thought it would make a visual story on the backdrop of Sri Lanka’s economic turmoil. Everyday, a stretch of beach is worked on by crews of anchovy fisherman. Gruelling physical work in full sun, yet their hard labour is not enough to feed their family due to inflation, consequently they often have to miss meals.  A full text was made by Skandha Gunasekara.
